ESSENTIAL REALITY, INC. (FORMERLY JPAL, INC.)

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 (UNAUDITED)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ORGANIZATION AND OTHER MATTERS

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America have been omitted. In the opinion of management, all
material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements. Certain amounts in the December 31,
2001 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current
period presentation.

On June 20, 2002, Essential Reality, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company
("ER LLC"), completed a business combination with JPAL, Inc., a Nevada
corporation and an SEC registrant ("JPAL") pursuant to an Amended Contribution
Agreement between ER LLC and JPAL, whereby all of the members of ER LLC
contributed their membership interests in ER LLC to the Company in exchange for
an aggregate of 16,874,784 shares of the Company's common stock (the
"Transaction"). Concurrent with the Transaction, the shareholders of JPAL
canceled 7,564,326 of their shares of JPAL common stock and were left with
1,080,934 shares of common stock representing 6.02% of the Company. Following
the Transaction, JPAL changed its name to Essential Reality, Inc. (the
"Company") and ER LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was merged into
the Company.

The Transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition in which ER LLC is
the accounting acquirer and JPAL is the legal acquirer. The management of ER LLC
remained as the management of the Company. Since the Transaction was accounted
for as a reverse acquisition and not a business combination, no goodwill has
been recorded in connection with the Transaction and the costs incurred in
connection with the Transaction have been accounted for as a reduction of
additional paid-in capital. As a result of the reverse acquisition, (i) the
historical financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the date of
the Transaction are no longer the historical financial statements of JPAL, and,
therefore, JPAL's historical financial statements are no longer presented; (ii)
the historical financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the date
of the Transaction are those of ER LLC; (iii) all references to the financial
statements of the "Company" apply to the historical financial statements of ER
LLC prior to the Transaction and to the financial statements of the Company
subsequent to the Transaction; and (iv) any reference to the Company applies
solely to ER LLC and Essential Reality, Inc.

The Company develops, manufactures and markets computer peripheral devices, with
an initial emphasis on a product called "P5"(TM). P5(TM) is a gloved shaped
device that controls the movement of objects on a computer screen. P5(TM)
enables three-dimensional movement of the cursor as well as allowing pitch and
yaw and roll. The users moving his/her hand and/or bending his/her fingers
control P5(TM).

The Company is in the development stage. Successful completion of the Company's
development program and ultimately the attainment of profitable operations are
dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill
its development activities, and achieving a level of revenue adequate to support
the Company's cost structure. The Company did not begin generating revenue until
after the close of the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 (see
Subsequent Event footnote), and has incurred cumulative net losses since
inception of $10,319,960. As a result, substantial doubt exists regarding the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company anticipates that,
based on its proposed plans and assumptions relating to the implementation of
its business plan, cash on hand as of September 30, 2002


                                       6
<PAGE>

together with projected revenue and anticipated accounts receivable factoring
and trade financing, it will have a cash shortfall of approximately $100,000 as
of December 2002. Should the Company not raise additional capital, generate the
projected revenue or obtain anticipated accounts receivable factoring and trade
financing, the Company expects to adjust its business plan and cash burn rate
such that cash on hand as of September 30, 2002 will be sufficient to satisfy
operations through December 2002. Thereafter, the Company will require
additional funding in order to reach the point of self-sufficiency. The Company
hopes to raise the additional cash from the exercise of certain warrants and/or
through additional offerings of its securities. The Company is unable to project
cash requirements through September 30, 2003 until it more fully determines the
level of projected revenue from the sale of its primary product, P5(TM). Such
determination is expected to occur by the end of the first quarter 2003.

Accounting Policies

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by
Development Stage Enterprises. As a development stage entity with no commercial
operating history, the Company is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties
inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. To address these
risks and uncertainties, the Company must, among other things, respond to
competitive developments; attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel; and
support the expense of marketing new products based upon innovative technology.
The Company commenced the recognition of product related revenue subsequent to
the balance sheet date. However, the Company expects to incur substantial losses
and negative cash flow from operating activities for the near future.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash equivalents include time deposits with
maturities of three months or less on the date or purchase.

Domain Name and Fixed Assets - Domain names are recorded at cost, net of
accumulated amortization. Fixed assets are recorded at cost, net of related
accumulated depreciation. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the respective
accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.
Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of fixed
assets is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful
lives of assets, which is three to five years, beginning when assets are placed
in service. Amortization of domain names is computed using the straight-line
method over a period of two years, taking a full year's depreciation in the year
of acquisition.

Product Development - Product development costs include expenses incurred by the
Company to research and develop the P5 product. Product development costs are
expensed until such time as the Company determines that a product is
technologically feasible. Product development costs are capitalized from such
date until such time as product development is substantially complete. Product
development costs capitalized will be amortized on the straight-line basis over
the lesser of the estimated useful life of the product or three years. All of
the costs to date have been expensed.

Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue from sales of the P5 will be recognized when the
product has been shipped, the sales price is fixed and determinable, collection
of the resulting receivable is probable and there are no significant rights of
return. Given that the Company does not have a history of sales of its P5
product, revenue recognition will be deferred until the right of return period
expires.

The Company may bundle product offerings from third party vendors along with the
P5 product. The Company maintains the relationship with the customer and, as
such, is the primary obligor. The Company has assumed the responsibility for
customer acceptance of all features of the product, as well as returns. As such,
the Company will record the gross amount of the purchase price of the P5 as
revenue and will reflect the related royalty to be paid to the third party
vendor as a component of cost of sales.

Inventory - Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market value, with cost
being determined on the first-in-first-out basis.

2. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

On June 20, 2002, ER LLC completed a private placement (the "Offering") whereby
it issued 7,274,784 membership units for gross proceeds of $7,577,900. Included
in the gross proceeds was $500,000 of bridge loans that were converted to
480,000 membership units of the Company. $250,000 of the bridge loans converted
was owed to JPAL and $250,000 was due to a third party lender. JPAL exchanged
the membership interest in ER LLC for the reduction of $250,000 in notes payable
it owed to third party lenders.

In connection with the Offering, the Company issued to its financial advisors
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 331,211 shares of Common Stock (the
"Additional Warrants"). Such warrants shall have an exercise price of $1.30 per
membership unit and shall be exercisable for a period of up to five years. As a
result of the Transaction, warrants to purchase membership units in ER LLC have
become warrants to purchase common shares of the Company. The value of these
warrants of $813,165 was computed using the Black-Schoales pricing model and has
no net-effect on stockholders' equity.

3. NOTES PAYABLE

As a result of the Transaction, bridge loans and accrued interest thereon in the
amount of $2,378,431 owed by ER LLC to JPAL were eliminated. In addition, upon
the Transaction, the Company assumed notes payable in the amount of $2,517,070
(the "JPAL" notes). Subsequent to the completion of the Transaction, the Company
repaid $550,000 of JPAL notes. As further discussed in the final paragraph of
this footnote, during the third quarter of 2002, $250,000 of these notes were
converted into common stock. The remaining balance of $1,717,070 bears interest
at the rate of 8 1/2% per annum and $40,786 of interst has been accrued as of
September 30, 2002. These notes are due April 30, 2004, and contain the
following prepayment provisions:

i.    During fiscal 2003, quarterly principal payments of $100,000, plus accrued
      interest.

ii.   50% of the proceeds received as a result of the exercise of warrants
      described below;

iii.  During fiscal 2002, 15% of the net proceeds received from the sale of
      equity in the Company above $10,000,000, subject to a maximum of $700,000;

iv.   During fiscal 2003, 20% of the net proceeds received from the sale of
      equity in the Company, subject to a maximum of $700,000, provided, that in
      the event the aggregate principal amount of bridge loans remaining
      outstanding at the time such equity is raised shall exceed $1,000,000,
      then the maximum amount due and payable shall be $900,000; and

v.    Beginning October 1, 2002, 35% of any Excess Cash greater than $2 million,
      up to a maximum of $200,000 (in addition to amounts received under clause
      (iv) above) in any quarter, where "Excess Cash" means any cash on the
      books of the Company at the end of a quarter minus any equity and/or debt
      raised during such quarter.

$500,000 of the notes payable may be converted by the holders to 263,158 shares
of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $1.90 per share. The
conversion right expires on December 20, 2002.


                                       7
<PAGE>

In connection with the notes and the previously outstanding bridge loans,
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 960,000 shares of common stock of JPAL at
$3.00 per share were cancelled and were replaced with warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 840,000 and 15,000 shares of common stock of the Company at the
exercise prices of $1.90 and $1.30, respectively. Such warrants expire on June
20, 2005.

The value of the beneficial conversion feature and warrants issued of $1,158,380
was computed using the Black-Scholes pricing model and is being accreted into
notes payable as additional interest expense over the remaining life of the
notes. During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002,
$155,892 and $178,973, respectively, has been recorded as interest expense. At
September 30, 2002, $979,407 remains netted against the long-term portion of
notes payable.

On July 17, 2002, the Company offered to the holders of the Non-Convertible
portion of the JPAL Notes, the opportunity to convert the outstanding principal
balance into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $1.15
per share when the Company's common stock was trading at $3.00 per share. The
offer remained open for 10 days and was limited to an aggregate of $300,000 of
the Notes. The value of this offer, $482,608, was based on the difference
between the closing price of the stock on the offer date and the conversion
price, and was included in Additional Paid in Capital and charged to interest
expense in July, 2002 as the offer expired prior to the end of that month. When
the offer expired, a total of $250,000 of the outstanding notes had been
tendered for conversion into 217,391 common shares. The holders of these shares
were granted the following registration rights (1) the Company became obligated
to file a registration statement covering 60% of the stock and (2) piggyback
registration rights were granted for the remaining 40% of the shares granted.

4. STOCK OPTIONS

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company issued to its
directors and employees, options to purchase an aggregate of 1,297,000 shares of
its common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.11 per share. Such
options expire ten years following the grant date. This included 200,000
contingent options, as further explained in the following paragraph. The
issuance of the non-contingent options resulted in deferred stock-based
compensation of $1,870,140, of which $399,121 was expensed during the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2002. Deferred compensation expense will be charged
to earnings over the vesting period of the options, which is between three and
four years. Deferred compensation expense was computed using the intrinsic value
method.

On September 5, 2002 the Company issued options to an employee (the `Contingent'
options) to purchase 200,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of
$1.00 per share. The options vest when either of the following conditions occur:
(i) the market capitalization of the Company, based on the public float, equals
or exceeds $150 million for a period of sixty consecutive business days and the
average daily volume of the Company's common stock traded during these sixty
days is no less than 125,000 or (ii) the Company sells all or substantially all
of its assets for a minimum of $125 million. Since these options do not vest
unless a future event occurs, the options are considered variable and will only
be recorded by the Company if the contingencies are satisfied.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company issued to its
advisors and consultants, options to purchase an aggregate of 235,000 shares of
its common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.84 per share. Such
options expire ten years following the grant date. The issuance of the options
resulted in deferred stock-based compensation of $580,768 of which $162,035 was
expensed during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002. Deferred
compensation expense will be charged to earnings over the term of the advisors'
and/or consultants' agreements. Deferred compensation expense was computed using
the Black-Scholes pricing model using a fair market value of $3.05 per share, a
term of 10 years, volatility of 80% and a risk-free rate of 5%.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had the following related party transactions as of September 30,
2002 and December 31, 2001 and for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2002 and 2001:

      a.    Accrued compensation of $235,992 and $257,103 at September 30, 2002

            LCG. Such costs include consulting fees related to business
            development, employee salaries, occupancy, telephone and computer
            leases. In the case of employee salaries, costs are allocated to the
            Company based on the time each employee conducts business specific
            to the Company. In the case of the other expenses, costs are
            allocated based on a percentage of resources used by the Company.

            development program.

6. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

      a.    In May 2002, the Company placed an order for the manufacture of P5
            with a third party manufacturer. Under the terms of the order the
            Company paid a deposit of $100,000 upon placing the order and posted
            letters of credit in the amount of $2 million. At balance sheet date
            there was $2 million in restricted cash, upon which the letters of
            credit could be drawn. Beginning in October, the Company began
            accepting receipt of these goods from the manufacturer, and as of
            November 7, 2002, $623,713 has been drawn against the letters of
            credit, as payment.

      b.    In May 2002, the Company entered into a letter of intent with a game
            developer. Under the letter of intent the game developer shall
            disclose to the Company the source code for two specific games so
            that the games can be integrated with P5. In addition, the game
            developer will release software updates enabling current users of
            the games to use P5. The Company will be responsible for integration
            and payment to the game developer of $100,000. Included in product
            development expenses for the three and nine months ended September
            30, 2002 is $16,667, and $33,333, respectively, relating to this
            letter of intent.

      c.    In September of 2002, the Company committed to pay royalties to a
            game publisher at the rate of $5 per unit. A minimum commitment of
            $187,500 is required. At the balance sheet date, no payments have
            been made.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On June 29, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Intangible
Assets." SFAS No. 142 eliminated the amortization of goodwill and certain other
intangibles and requires an impairment test of their carrying value. An initial
impairment test of goodwill and certain other intangibles must be completed in
the year of adoption with at least an annual impairment test thereafter. On
January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. The Company completed the
initial impairment tests in the first quarter of 2002, which did not result in
an impairment of goodwill or other intangibles.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations". SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations and costs associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived
assets. The Company is required to implement SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003,
and management does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on the
Company's results of operations or financial position.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001. Under SFAS No. 144 assets held for sale will be included in
discontinued operations if the operations and cash flows will be or have been
eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity and the entity will not
have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No.
144 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or


                                       9
<PAGE>

financial position.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145 "Rescission of FASB Statements No.
4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections".
This statement eliminates the automatic classification of gain or loss on
extinguishment of debt as an extraordinary item of income and requires that such
gain or loss be evaluated for extraordinary classification under the criteria of
Accounting Principles Board No. 30 "Reporting Results of Operations". This
statement also requires sales-leaseback accounting for certain lease
modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sales-leaseback
transactions, and makes various other technical corrections to existing
pronouncements. This statement will be effective for the Company for the year
ending December 31, 2003. The adoption of this statement will not have a
material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 will supersede Emerging Issues
Task Force Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee
Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain
Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that costs associated
with an exit or disposal plan be recognized when incurred rather than at the
date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 is to be applied
prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.

8. Subsequent Events

In October of 2002, the Company launched the sale of P5 units, and began
collecting revenue in November of 2002. Revenue will not be recognized until
certain contingent events have been resolved.

On November 20, 2002, the Company completed a $500,000 bridge financing (the
"Financing"), consisting of a six month 8% Secured Convertible Debenture (the
"Debenture"), due on May 20, 2003. The Debenture is convertible into units at a
price of $1.25 per unit, each such unit consisting of one share of Common Stock
and a warrant to purchase 0.3 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.375 per
warrant, or $1.25 for a whole warrant. The Black-Schoales value of the warrants
and the beneficial conversion feature will be amortized to interest expense over
the life of the debt. The Financing is intended to assist the Company with its
cash flow as it seeks to raise additional financing through the sale of equity
securities and/or factoring its accounts receivable.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements included in this report. It is intended to assist the
reader in understanding and evaluating the financial position of the Company.
This report contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Words such as "may", "will",
"should", "could", "expects", "plans", "intends", "anticipates", "believes",
"estimates", "potential", or "continue" or the negative of such terms and other
comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in
the forward-looking statements. Risk factors that could cause or contribute to
such differences include those discussed in Essential Reality, Inc.'s
Registration Statement of Form SB-2.

                                    Overview

On June 20, 2002, Essential Reality, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company
("ER LLC"), completed a business combination with JPAL, Inc., a Nevada
corporation and an SEC registrant ("JPAL") pursuant to an Amended Contribution
Agreement between ER LLC and JPAL, whereby all of the members of ER LLC
contributed their membership interests in ER LLC to the Company in exchange for
an aggregate of 16,874,784 shares of the Company's common stock (the
"Transaction"). Concurrent with the Transaction,


                                       10
<PAGE>

the shareholders of JPAL canceled 7,564,326 of their shares of JPAL common stock
and were left with 1,080,934 shares of common stock representing 6.02% of the
Company. Following the Transaction, JPAL changed its name to Essential Reality,
Inc. (the "Company") and ER LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was
merged into the Company.

The Transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition in which ER LLC is
the accounting acquirer and JPAL is the legal acquirer. The management of the ER
LLC remained as the management of the Company. Since the Transaction was
accounted for as a reverse acquisition and not a business combination, no
goodwill has been recorded in connection with the Transaction and the costs
incurred in connection with the Transaction has been accounted for as a
reduction of additional paid-in capital. As a result of the reverse acquisition,
(i) the historical financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the
date of the Transaction are no longer the historical financial statements of
JPAL, and, therefore, JPAL's historical financial statements are no longer
presented; (ii) the historical financial statements of the Company for periods
prior to the date of the Transaction are those of ER LLC; (iii) all references
to the financial statements of the "Company" apply to the historical financial
statements of ER LLC prior to the Transaction and to the financial statements of
the Company subsequent to the Transaction; and (iv) any reference to the Company
applies solely to ER LLC and Essential Reality, Inc.

Founded in 1999, the Company is a developer of real-time tracking and sensory
technologies. We are focusing on combining these technologies into products that
enhance the interaction between human beings and computer platforms, with
initial emphasis on a product called "P5(TM)." P5(TM) is a device shaped in the
form of a glove that controls the movement of the cursor on a computer screen.
P5(TM) enables three-dimensional movement of the cursor as well as pitch, yaw
and roll. The user moving his hand and/or bending his fingers controls P5(TM).

On June 20, 2002, the Company completed a private placement (the "Offering")
whereby it issued 7,274,784 membership units for gross proceeds of $7,577,900.
Included in the gross proceeds was $500,000 of bridge loans that were converted
to 480,000 membership units of the Company. $250,000 of the bridge loans
converted was owed to JPAL and $250,000 was due to a third party lender. In
connection with the Offering, the Company issued to its financial advisors
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 331,211 membership units (the "Additional
Warrants"). Such warrants shall have an exercise price of $1.30 per membership
unit and shall be exercisable for a period of up to five years. As a result of
the Transaction, warrants to purchase membership units in the Company have
become warrants to purchase common shares of the Company.

The Company is in the development stage. Successful completion of its
development program and, ultimately, the attainment of profitable operations are
dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill
our development activities, and achieving a level of revenue adequate to support
its cost structure. The Company began its product launch in October of 2002, and
has not yet generated significant revenue, but incurred significant recurring
losses from operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Product Development - Product development costs include expenses incurred by the
Company to research and develop the P5 product. Product development costs are
expensed until such time as the Company determines that a product is
technologically feasible. Product development costs are capitalized from such
date until such time as product development is substantially complete. Product
development costs capitalized will be amortized on the straight-line basis over
the lesser of the estimated useful life of the product or three years. All of
the costs to date have been expensed.

Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.


                                       11
<PAGE>

Revenue Recognition - Revenue from sales of the P5 will be recognized when the
product has been shipped, the sales price is fixed and determinable, collection
of the resulting receivable is probable and there are no significant rights of
return. Given that the Company does not have a history of sales of its P5
product, revenue recognition will be deferred until the right of return period
expires.

The Company may bundle product offerings from third party vendors along with the
P5 product. The Company maintains the relationship with the customer and, as
such, is the primary obligor. The Company has assumed the responsibility for
customer acceptance of all features of the product, as well as returns. As such,
the Company will record the gross amount of the purchase price of the P5 as
revenue and will reflect the related royalty to be paid to the third party
vendor as a component of cost of sales.

Inventory - Inventory is valued at the lower or cost or market value, with cost
being determined on the first-in-first-out basis.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 compared to the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2001

The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
interim financial information. In our opinion, we have included all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation.

Revenue. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company did
not recognize product-related revenues. It began product shipments in October of
2002. Revenue will be deferred in accordance with the above stated accounting
policy for revenue recognition until certain contingent events have been
resolved.

Operating expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002,
operating expenses totaled $2,216,829 and $4,743,181, respectively, compared to
$981,114 and $1,854,951 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001,
respectively. The increase in operating expenses resulted from the increase in
product development, marketing and general and administrative expenses as
described below.

Product development expense. For the three and nine months ended September 30,
2002 product development expense was $962,819 and $1,843,929, respectively,
compared with $515,891 and $896,007 for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2001, respectively. The increase in product development for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2002 versus September 30, 2001 reflects
increases in salaries and benefits ($75,000), fees paid to third party
developers ($602,000), non-cash compensation expense relating to employee stock
options given to an employee ($399,000), partially offset by reductions in other
expense items. The increase in product development for the comparative
three-month period is principally attributable to non-cash stock compensation
($286,000) and fees paid to third party developers ($150,000). Included in
product development expenses are $-0-, $15,000, $26,670, $56,500 for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, paid to a
company owned by certain shareholders of the Company, which have experience in
the area of product strategy, design and development.

Marketing expense. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 was
$411,802 and $1,028,325, respectively, compared with $216,989 and $479,056 for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, respectively. The increases
in marketing expense for the comparative nine-month periods reflect increases in
marketing related salaries of $156,000, advertising and consulting of $285,000,
and travel and entertainment of $121,000. The increase in marketing expenses for
the comparative three-month period reflects increases in marketing related
salaries of $40,000 and advertising and consulting expenses of $108,000.


General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2002 was $838,342 and $1,860,231, respectively, compared to
$240,664 and $471,001 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001,
respectively. The increase in the comparative nine- month periods is due to an
increase in salaries and benefits of $500,000, and the increase in consulting
costs of $192,000 required to support our development and marketing activities.
The balance of the increase was due to higher general corporate expenses needed
to support an increased level of business activity. The increase for the
comparative three-month period is principally attributable to non-cash stock
compensation of $156,000 and increased salary and benefits of $196,000. The
balance of the increase was due to higher general corporate expenses needed to
support an increased level of business activity. Additionally, a non-cash charge
of $156,586 and $275,085 was incurred in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2002 relating to stock options issued to employees, directors,
advisors and consultants. Included in general and administrative


                                       12
<PAGE>

expenses are costs incurred of approximately $58,224 and $186,329 for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2002, and of $57,672 and $144,349 for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, by two entities that are related
to certain shareholders. Such costs include consulting fees, employee salaries,
occupancy, telephone and computer leases. In the case of employee salaries,
costs are allocated to us based on the time each employee conducts business
specific to us. In the case of the other expenses, costs are allocated based on
a percentage of resources used by us. In our opinion, allocated expenses
incurred from related parties approximate fair market value.

Interest expense. Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2002 was $677,504 and $816,390, compared with $2,235 and $3,272 for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2001. In 2002, interest expense
related primarily to bridge loans. Included in interest expense for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2002 is a non-cash charge of $638,500 and
$661,581, respectively, relating to amortization of deferred interest, which
amounts include $482,608 resulting from the beneficial conversion feature
offered on July 17, 2002 and more fully described in the final paragraph of Note
3 to the condensed financial statements.

Interest Income. Interest income was $9,002 and $11,853 for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2002, respectively, as compared to $447 and $20,465
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001. During 2002, interest
income was earned from cash and cash equivalents. In 2001, interest was earned
primarily from the note receivable for Essential Reality, LLC's members' capital

Net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and September
30, 2001 were $2,885,331, $5,547,718, $982,902, and $1,837,758, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002 cash used in operations was
$6,190,298. The principal difference between net loss and cash flow used in
operations was cash to secure letters of credit in the amount of $2,000,000.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company completed a private
placement which generated cash proceeds of $6,089,798 net of costs associated
with the Transaction and Offering of $850,536, of which $217,755 was prepaid as
of December 31, 2001.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company received proceeds
from bridge loans of $1,825,000. Bridge loans prior to closing of the
Transaction and Offering amounted to $3,325,000. Upon closing of the Offering,
$500,000 of the bridge loans was converted to 480,000 membership units of ER LLC
and we repaid an additional $550,000 of the bridge loans. Upon closing of the
Transaction the remaining bridge loans and accrued interest in the amount of
$2,378,431 were eliminated and the Company assumed $2,517,070 of notes payable
to third party lenders. Following the Transaction, we repaid $550,000 of the
notes payable.

At September 30, 2002 the Company had total assets of $3,167,559 of which
$671,992 was in cash and cash equivalents and $2,000,000 was in restricted cash.
Restricted cash is used to secure letters of credit, which are required to place
orders for the manufacture of our products. At September 30, 2002, the Company
had total liabilities of $2,082,063 of which $809,023 were accounts payable and
$874,407 (net of deferred interest of $979,407) were notes payable. Included in
notes payable is debt of $737,663 which bears interest at the rate of 8 1/2% per
annum and are due April 30, 2004, except that $300,000 of the notes payable is
due within one year. The balance of $136,744 is attributable to debt financing
of insurance premiums.

On November 20, 2002, the Company completed a $500,000 bridge financing (the
"Financing"), consisting of a six month 8% Secured Convertible Debenture (the
"Debenture") due on May 20th, 2003. The Debenture is convertible into units at a
price of $1.25 per unit, each such unit consisting of one share of Common Stock
and a warrant to purchase 0.3 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.375 per
warrant, or $1.25 for a whole warrant. The Black Shoals value of the warrents
and the beneficial conversion feature will be amortized to interest expense over
the life of the debt. The Financing is intended to assist the Company with its
cash flow as it seeks to raise additional financing through the sale of equity
securities and/or factoring its accounts receivable.

The Company anticipates that, based on its proposed plans and assumptions
relating to the implementation of its business plan, cash on hand as of
September 30, 2002 together with projected revenue, the $500,000 bridge
financing described in the preceding paragraph and anticipated accounts
receivable factoring and trade financing, it will have a cash shortfall of
approximately $100,000 as of December 2002. Should the Company not raise
additional capital, generate the projected revenue or obtain anticipated
accounts receivable factoring and trade financing, the Company expects to adjust
its business plan and cash burn rate such that cash on hand as of September 30,
2002, and the cash proceeds of the bridge loan received in November, 2002, will
be sufficient to


                                       13
<PAGE>

satisfy operations through December 2002. Thereafter, the Company will require
additional funding in order to reach the point of self-sufficiency. The Company
hopes to raise the additional cash from the exercise of certain warrants and/or
through additional offerings of its securities. The Company is unable to project
cash requirements through September 30, 2003 until it more fully determines the
level of projected revenue from the sale of its primary product, P5(TM). Such
determination is expected to occur by the end of the first quarter 2003.

Item 2. Changes in Securities.

On June 20, 2002, the Registrant consummated a business combination (the
"Transaction") with Essential Reality, LLC ("ER LLC"). Pursuant to the terms of
the Transaction, all of the members of ER LLC contributed their membership
interests in ER LLC to the Registrant in exchange for an aggregate of 16,874,784
shares of the Registrant's common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common
Stock"). Such shares consisted of 9,600,000 shares of Common Stock issued to the
original members of ER LLC (the "Contribution Shares") and 7,274,784 shares of
Common Stock issued to new investors who purchased membership interests in ER
LLC in a recently completed private placement (the "Private Placement Shares").
Following the Transaction, ER LLC, then a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Registrant, was merged with and into the Registrant. In connection with the
Transaction, (i) holders of certain bridge notes issued by the Registrant
received, as additional consideration, two-year warrants ("Bridge Warrants") to
purchase up to 840,000 shares of Common Stock and 15,000 shares of Common Stock
(collectively, the "Bridge Warrant Shares"), at a purchase price of $1.90 and
$1.30 per share, respectively, (ii) holders of certain bridge notes issued by
the Registrant exchanged them for convertible promissory notes of the Registrant
("Convertible Notes"), which are convertible for a period of six months at a
conversion price of $1.90 into an aggregate of 263,158 shares of Common Stock
(the "Convertible Note Shares"), and (iii) the Registrant issued warrants
("Additional Warrants") to purchase up to an aggregate of 331,211 shares of
Common Stock (the "Additional Warrant Shares") at a purchase price of $1.30 per
share. On July 19, 2002, the Registrant filed a registration statement on Form

comprised of (i) 60% of the Private Placement Shares, (ii) 25% of the
Contribution Shares and (iii) all of the Bridge Warrant Shares, Convertible Note
Shares and Additional Warrant Shares. Upon effectiveness of the Form SB-2, the

will increase from 18,173,110 to 19,622,479.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to Vote of Security Holders.

Within the ninety (90) day period prior to the filing date of this report,
Essential Reality's chief executive officer carried out an evaluation of the
effectiveness of Essential Reality's disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended). Based on that evaluation, the officer concluded that Essential
Reality's disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective. There
have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of that
evaluation, including any corrective actions with respect to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K.

(a) Exhibits.

      99.1  Certification pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
            2002.

(b) Reports on Form 8-K.

      On July 3, 2002, the Registrant filed a Form 8-K disclosing the
Transaction, which was consummated on June 20, 2002. The Registrant financed the
Transaction with Common Stock having a market value of approximately
$29,000,000. The Registrant now


                                       15
<PAGE>

operates the business of ER LLC. On September 27, 2002, the following financial
statements were filed with regard to the Transaction:

            a. Audited Financial Statements of Essential Reality, LLC for the
      years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.

            b. Unaudited financial statements of Essential Reality, Inc.
      (Formerly JPAL, Inc.) for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.

            c. Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information of Essential Reality,
      Inc. (formerly JPAL, Inc.) for the year ended December 31, 2001 and for
      the six months ended June 30, 2002.

        On July 15, 2002, the Registrant filed a Form 8-K disclosing that, in
contemplation of the Transaction, the Board of Directors recommended a change of
accounting firms. The accounting firm of Lesley, Thomas, Schwarz & Postma, Inc.
("Lesley Thomas"), which had served as the Registrant's independent public
accountants since March 31, 1999, was replaced by Deloitte & Touche LLP. The
shareholders approved such change at a meeting of shareholders on February 1,
2002. Due to the delay in closing the Transaction, Lesley Thomas was officially
dismissed, and Deloitte & Touche LLP officially engaged, on July 12, 2002 (the
"Termination Date"). The report of Lesley Thomas for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 2001, and for all periods through the Termination
Date, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During such period, there
were no disagreements between the Registrant and them on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing
scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to their satisfaction, would have
caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in
connection with their report. No event described in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item
304 of Regulation S-B has occurred with us at any time during such periods.
